When it comes to iPhones and World of Warcraft, this won't be the first video showing how the latter could run on the former, with most of them being empty claims and mere mock-ups. This time, however, things may be a little different. Thanks to Vollee and the VolleeX engine, a video demonstration was put up on YouTube with the massively popular MMORPG running on an iPhone. See for yourself.



We first saw Vollee showing off that it could run Second Life on a mobile phone. In an interview with PocketGamer, Vollee head of business development Julian Corbett spoke about how the VolleeX engine makes it possible for any 3G handset to run full PC games, MMOs, or even virtual worlds. It's very possible, and it might even come true soon. Vollee has already announced a partnership with Activision-Blizzard, making this video closer to reality than ever.

When asked about the functionality about the app, the one who posted the vid on YouTube claimed that it's a "fully working app." As for now, with no confirmation from either Apple or ActiBlizz, this remains just a rumor. Though it's a very old rumor, it really looks like they've struck oil this time.
